Honda Power Equipment L14-20R Wiring the EmerGen Switch to the Load Center

Wiring the EmerGen Switch to the Load Center

1.From your plan, locate the circuit breaker that is to be connected to the EmerGen Switch circuit “A”. Turn that circuit breaker to the OFF position. Loosen the lug securing the wire and remove the wire.

WARNING: Your generator must be properly grounded and the neutral un-bonded at the generator. Please refer to the generator manual for grounding instructions. It is always recommended that users always disconnect the generator plug from the EmerGen Transfer Switch when not in use.

2.Find both the red and black EmerGen Switch wires labeled “A”. Using good workmanship, route both of these wires close to the selected circuit breaker.

a)The red EmerGen Switch “A” wire is trimmed, stripped and installed into the circuit breaker, securely tightening the breaker lug.

b)The black EmerGen Switch “A” wire and the hot wire from the circuit breaker (removed in step 1) are placed up the side of the load center together.

c)After removing 5/8” of the insulation from the black EmerGen Switch “A” wire, insert both wires into a yellow wire connector. Twist the connector tightly and push the wires back into the wiring compartment of the load center.

3. Repeat step 2 for each 120 volt circuit. See the following section for the installation of 240 volt circuits.
